Candy Shop Chapter 2

Chapter 1

Summary: Alexis is the leader of a small, but thriving community, hidden deep in the woods. It seemed that the people living there have found a small, fragile understanding of peace. How long can a quiet life last when Negan finds them and shows interest in what the small colony has to offer? Chapter 2:

Alexis felt very uncomfortable riding down one of the main roads. She was used to complicated paths in the woods, where she could always disappear if someone was following her. But here she was exposed, on the open field, an easy target.

There was a more hidden way to the Sanctuary, but she was sure Negan had set people up to watch her and she didn't want to willingly hand him over possible escape routes before they made a deal.

After a long argument with her advisors and her bat damaging her table because she had to crash it into the wood to silence them all, she decided to come here alone. She didn't trust the leader of the Saviors one bit and she couldn't have people with her that dared to question her. The arrival of the much larger group at her community had brought rebellious voices up and Alexis probably had to silence some of them within the next few days.

She never punished for opinions. She didn't set up rules. But she had a problem with little dicks that tried to cause an uprising and didn't have the brain to bring arguments to their complaints. That was usually the way to silence them. Her people would see that she brought solutions to problems, while the others brought up problems with out solutions. Most of them already understood that surviving in this world brought sacrifices with it. As long as Alexis brought solutions with the smallest amount of added corpses, she would leader. If someone proved to be a more worthy leader, Alexis would leave without questioning it.

That probably was why people respected Alexis. She didn't force herself upon her community. The young woman left them a choice, they could get rid of her easily, but for as long as she made rational decisions, they were all ok with her making them.

When she saw the outline of the Sanctuary from afar, she couldn't help but be impressed. It was massive, the perfect place to give shelter to all those people. Negan may be a maniac, but he sure as hell must be intelligent enough to keep this mass in check.

A shiver ran down her spine when she saw the dead chained to the fence. Some were spiked through the torso, others still were intact and reached out for every flesh they could get. Even after all this time they still kind of scared her. It was hard to imagine that these things have been people once.

Alexis drew quite the attention onto her when she came into eyesight. The eyes of the people protecting the gate were on her and suddenly a dozen of people was pointing their guns onto her. She rolled her eyes and stopped her horse when they were in hearing distance.

They all haven't been between the crowd that came to her community yesterday. It seemed like they weren't properly briefed about her arrival, as their faces showed signs of confusions when they took her appearance in.

The leader always had attracted attention with her bat and the prominent leather jacket, combined with her cold, unemotional face and eyes that seemed to bore right into the soul. But the similarity to Negan seemed to enhance it.

"Good morning, gentlemen. Your leader awaits me."

Alexis pulled out her bat that was secured at the saddle and rested it against her shoulder, while the Saviors exchanged glances, probably not sure if this girl, all on her own, was a threat.

"Get off the horse."

She pulled up a perfectly shaped brow and shrugged, jumping down.

"Rude. Haven't your mums taught you any manners?"

On propose, she let her British accent sound heavily in her words, letting them seem even more arrogant and mocking.

Beside the hunting knife in the holster secured at her belt, she carried no seeable weapons. Alexis despised guns, she hated using them, so she usually didn't even have one with her. Most people considered her foolish for that, but well, she survived until now.

"...Well, you're going to let me in or not?"

She continued after the Saviors didn't make any efforts to reply. They probably had no clue what to do with her.

"Give us your weapons."

"Yeah, sure."

Alexis said sarcastically and suddenly they moved closer to her, the barrels of the guns nearly tipping her chin. But she still stayed calm, staring the person in front of her down with her piercing blue eyes, the amused smile never fading.

"Well, well, well, boys, is that a way to treat a lady?"

Suddenly, the booming, effortlessly loud voice of Negan came up from the gate. His men tensed and scattered backwards, immediately obeying their leader. There was fear visible in their eyes, to which Alexis raised a brow. But even Alexis noticed it: he had this aura, authority seemed written all over him and this frightening charisma made her understand how he could handle all of this. She was curious to find out more about this ways of leading his people.

"You should train your dogs better. They're quite feisty."

Negan laughed, but then finally motioned for her to step through the gate.

"You have some beach ball sized lady nuts, coming here all on your own, Lexi. I like that."

Again he was way too deep in her comfort zone, towering over her, every inch of him trying to convince her that he was so superior. Alexis smirked, but not because she found that funny.

"Call me that again and you'll see that lady nuts slit your throat."

They both chuckled, staring at each other for some time, both sliding back and forth over the line where this pissing contest could go over into sheer violence. It was obvious that Negan wasn't used to someone speaking to him like Alexis did, but he couldn't help but grow fond of that. There were less than a handful of people here that dared to joke around with him and not shiver in fear at the sight of him.

"What makes you think we won't fucking kill you right here and now?"

She poked his chest with her bat lightly tp push him backwards at arms length.

"Because you aren't stupid. You know my people won't be pleased if you kill me. And even though you know that you could erase us with ease, you know that hell a lot of people would die. Well, and people are the most important resource in this world, aren't they?"

Alexis knew that there was no sense in trying to outmatch him with anything. They had more of everything, she could only impress him by reasoning with logical arguments.

"I see we understand each other, doll."

He was pushing her buttons by giving her pet names, making her hand clench around her bat tightly, heavily annoyed by his disrespect.

Negan casually wrapped an arm around her shoulder and led her inside. But before she could shrug his arm off, a voice from behind them interrupted the uprising bickering.

"Don't you want us to disarm her, boss?"

Negan adverted his gaze from his lackey back to the woman beside him. He bit his lower lip, thinking, quickly scanning her body for weapons. Of course she carried some, but not even a gun which surprised him slightly.

"I think it's time to show some trust, right?"

...

"You're lucky, I was just plotting some shit with my best men. If I'm being honest, I wasn't sure if you'd really come."

Negan led Alexis through a dimly hallway. This place was even more impressive from the inside. The grey walls created a depressive mood, but aside from that it intimidated every person walking in here even further. It was quite cool in here and countless doors led away from the way. For unwanted intruders, this could be a damn maze.

"I'm a woman of my word."

He glanced at her.

"Not many left of them, right? The damn apocalypse turned everyone into freakin' liars."

"Are you a liar, Negan?"

She stopped and looked up to her. Negan again had to admit that he was baffled by those damn blue depths. Those truly could squeeze the truth out of everyone without using any physical violence.

"No, I'm not. Why would I lie to anyone? People believe in me, rely on me, so it's my fucking responsibility to be truthful and realistic."

I'm not a liar anymore. He added in his mind. That was something cutie here didn't have to know.

Alexis continued on her way, shortly distracted by thinking about what he said. Maybe they weren't so different. If she was honest, she thought the same way he did. They just executed it differently.

Whenever they passed people, they immediately stopped their conversations and dropped to their knees. Negan ignored it and just grinned proudly, his ego seeming to go through the roof whenever Alexis rose an eyebrow to the grotesque scene.

Did he really think he was some kind of higher force? Was he really such a control freak that made his people kneel in order to show him respect? Probably.

"I hope you don't expect me to ever kneel in front of you. Because I'd rather choke on the barb wire of your bat."

He licked his lips, ready to shoot the next profanity.

"Oh, but I would love to see you kneeling...and doing some other things."

Alexis shot him a glare, but the corners of her mouth lightly twitched upwards out of amusement. Negan came to a halt in front of a door close to the end of the hallway and opened it, motioning for her to get in first.

The room had a large, metal table in the middle, multiple stools placed around it. Four people were in here, curiously eyeing her. None of them had been with Negan yesterday.

"Lexi, those are Simon, Dwight, Arat and..."

Before he could mention the fourth name, Alexis shot around and suddenly punched him square in the jaw. Negan's head flipped to the side and guns were immediately pointed at her head. The silence was full of tension, Negan's people looking to their leader, as if seeking for permission to shoot her.

But Negan had different plans. He grabbed her by her shoulder and pressed her against the wall behind her, caging her by securing her wrists over her head, his hips and lean legs keeping her from moving an inch.

Not that Alexis intended to move. She found his outburst ridiculously funny. With ease she could've stabbed the knife in her sleeve in his hand and get free, but she didn't want to pick up a fight. He was beyond pissed, it was obvious.

"Out. Now!"

Negan bellowed at his four lackeys who hesitantly put away their guns and hurried out of the room, not happy about leaving their leader alone with this maniac chick.

"What the fuck was this, doll? Do you have no clue who you just punched? I've killed people for less."

He yelled right in her face, his eyebrows furrowed. Usually people must be frightened like hell by this look, but not Alexis. She would never show fear.

"I told you, I'm a woman of my word. And I said that I won't tolerate you calling me Lexi again. You're lucky that my goodwill runs deep enough to not make the original threat real."

Winking at him, she bit her lip to keep herself from chuckling. She poked that bear enough for today and she still had plenty of things to discuss with him that he won't like.

"I appreciate your guts, but I can't the fuck stand disrespect. Especially in front of my people."

She didn't answer anything and for a moment, they tried stared each other down. Staring contests probably were starting to be their thing. Sighing, Alexis tried to push him away.

"Can we finally discuss the matters I came here for, or do you want to continue to dry fuck me on this wall?"

Negan pulled away, glaring at her as he turned around, his hand stroking his beard as he tried to figure how to handle this girl.

"Well, I proposed my offer. It's your turn to put something on the table, sweetheart."

Lightly she rubbed her hurting wrists and leaned against the table, her legs crossed at the ankle casually.

"I want to forge an alliance with you. Our communities can work together, share, live as equals."

His booming laugh made anger rise bitterly up her throat, making her lips press together into a thin line.

"Share? Live as equals? You know, I find this damn cute, but seriously, how many people to you have? Forty?"

Alexis stood up straight, not in the mood for joking anymore.

"Fifty-eight to be precise. Negan, I don't know how you find humor in this, because I'm actually quite serious. You should see the advantages of it. If we follow your offer, my people will cause an uprising and probably make walker sushi out of me and well, how knows if the next leader will be as easy to handle as I am? Not only would you loose all the men power my people could provide, but they would take hell a lot of yours down with you."

He walked back towards her, his eyes again locking with hers.

"That sounds precisely like blackmail, Lexi."

Oh how she wanted to punch him again for this stupid nickname. But she knew that this time it wouldn't end well for her and her community if she did.

"Well, I'm just showing you the consequences. But instead, we could simply become friends. Think, Negan, more covered ground by people you can trust. My men are experienced in scavenging and planting crops, we even have a doctor. We can plan routes together, keep an eye on other communities. Give you shit you don't have, in return for things that you have plenty of. I want the best for our people, because I think we both agree on the fact that they are the most important piece of the puzzle."

The leader of the Saviors thought for a moment, tipping the tip of his bat against the wall beside him.

"Lucille, what do you think? I have no shitty clue if I can trust doll face."

He held the bat up and gently caressed the barbed wire.

"Your bat has a name?"

Cocking up a brow, she looked at him unbelievingly.

"Abso-fucking-lutely. Doesn't yours have one?"

"Um, no. Can we please switch back to the more important issue?"

Negan paced around the room and it started to drive Alexis crazy, but she knew that this was exactly what he wanted, so she kept herself together.

"And how should we do what you are asking of me?

She folded her arms in front of her chest, feeling his predatory gaze on her. It was a very dangerous right now. If she used the wrong words, if she went too far, he would probably struck her dead without blinking.

"We meet up every week, one week your place, the other mine, and discuss the matters important for our alliance. Of course with our advisors, if you want to. No hijacking, backstabbing or killing people. Because you have more people, you have the bigger say in this, but we still work together like friends. Doesn't that sound nice?"

This would be hard to convince her people of. They always weren't keen on working together with others and also Alexis would prefer to let it stay the old way, but this time it was their only chance. The Saviors would take everything they had by force if she didn't convince Negan of this.

"If I'm being honest, I'm really enjoying your bravery, doll. Well, I'm a man of reason and you've caught me in a generous mood. We do it as you say. You have three months to convince me that this is a fruitful alliance."

Her eyes flickered up surprised. She didn't expect to simply swallow her proposal like this. He had more power than Alexis could ever get, he could easily have dismissed her. But he didn't. Maybe he even found her ideas logical. Or he was planning something.

"Of course I have additions to the deal. Two, to be precise. First, I want a tour through your cozy little community next week."

Shrugging, she nodded.

"Ok. Second?"

Negan smiled brightly, showing his pearly white teeth.

"I want you to teach me how to ride a pony. Because, damn, you make a mind-blowingly amaaaazing entrance with that horsey of yours."

Laughing at Alexis' puzzled expression, he extended his hand to her.

"...Do we have a deal."

She looked down and took a deep breath before shaking his larger, rough hand.

"Yes, we do."

Alexis couldn't shake off the feeling of just having made a deal with the devil. This wouldn't end well for her.

The Ex Factor Guide | 15 Ways To Make Your Man Commit

15 Ways To Make Your Man Commit

Now, let’s move on and talk about some ‘commitment-building’ tactics…#1. Small SurprisesMen often say they hate surprises, but that simply isn’t true. As long as the surprises aren’t over-the-top ordeals that put him in an awkward situation (i.e., surprise parties), then he  truly will appreciate his lady taking the time to do something thoughtful for him.If you want to try to surprise your man, consider making a nice dinner, picking up his favourite beer, or even stashing cute love notes in his lunch bag. Yes, women love the big, dramatic, romantic gestures, but men would rather get theirs on a smaller scale.#2. Be Decisive (Commit To A Decision!)Everyone has their indecisive moments, but this type of behaviour can be draining. If you’re the type of woman who relies on her man to choose everything from where to go for dinner to what to wear on New Year’s Eve, then he’s going to either get bored of your indecisiveness, or become annoyed by it.Whether you’re playing hard to get in the wrong way or simply unable to pick a movie to watch this is one of the top reasons that men lose interest.As much as guys like to be in control, they have different interests than women and the last thing they want to do is answer to all your girlie decisions. Instead, have opinions of your own– make decisions and express yourself. After all, your man fell for you, so show him how strong and independent you can be.#3. Be PunctualBeing on time for someone is a sign of respect, so if you have plans to meet your man somewhere, then be there when you say you will.There is very rarely an acceptable excuse for being late; in fact, you should aim to arrive 10 minutes ahead of time so that unexpected delays don’t affect your schedule.It doesn’t matter if your nylons got a pull on your way out the door and caused you to change, or that traffic was backed up for blocks; the key is to be prepared and to anticipate these kind of incidents. Treat every occasion like a first date; you wouldn’t keep him waiting then, so maintain the same attitude.#4. Have a Life Without Him (Important!)In the beginning of a romantic relationship it’s easy to get swept away by infatuation and to want to spend all of your free time with your lover.That said, you should never lose yourself to your relationship. As much as your man may openly admit he loves spending time with you, it’s important to make it known that you have a life outside of the relationship.Does He Like Me? I’ve created a quiz that will tell you definitively if a guy likes you… or not.

Click here

to take the quiz and and discover his true feelings.There’s nothing worse than when a women pushes her friends, family, and hobbies to the side to make room for a man, so find a happy medium and make the most of life.Your man will miss you when you’re not around, so go out with your gal pals, sign up for that spinning class, or take a weekend to yourself; you’ll be sure to have his attention when you return.#5. Keep Arguments PrivateNo matter how angry or upset you may be with your man, you should never scream at him, belittle him, or call him names — especially if you’re in public. The only way to have a healthy argument with your partner is to keep it private.This means that it doesn’t matter if you’re at a party or in a shopping mall, you shouldn’t argue if there’s an audience. Arguing in front of others is not only humiliating, but it’s also extremely disrespectful.The same can be said for sharing your problems with outsiders; you wouldn’t like it if he dished out the dirt to his friends, so don’t do it to him.Keep in mind is that you and your man will be over your argument long before your man’s friends forget how you treated him.#6. Be Open to Sex (Important!)

Believe it or not, a common confession from men is that they feel their woman is withholding or selfish with sex. Don’t panic, just consider your situation and give the areas lacking attention some TLC.If you want your man to commit, it’s important to be open to his sexual needs, and willing to explore his desires.It’s not uncommon for couples to have different sex drives, but it’s important to compromise so that one partner isn’t feeling neglected in particular areas.#7. Drop the Drama (Important!)Stereotypes aside, women have a greater tendency to be dramatic over the little things, which is why it’s important to learn how to control your anger so you won’t sweat the small stuff.Whether your man is late getting home from work or leaves his dirty socks on the bathroom floor, calmly address problems as they arise rather than throwing a fit of rage.This doesn’t just speak to your relationship, but your life as a whole. Dig deep and get grounded, practice calmness, kindness, and patience. Men admire a woman that they can relax around.#8. Be PlayfulThere’s nothing men love more than to be able to laugh and joke around with their partner. Besides, who doesn’t love a good laugh? No matter how stressful your day job may be or how many errands you have to run in one day, always make time to be playful with one another.Tease your man, wrestle him, and let your guard down. Sharing this kind of vulnerability with your partner is not only a great way to connect on a deeper level, but it’ll also make your man realize how lucky he is to have a friend in you.

Do you often find yourself stuck with men who refuse to commit, no matter how hard you try? Watch

this free how-to video presentation I recently posted on my website.

#9. Don’t Need to Be RightThere’s no bigger turnoff than the need to always be right, so don’t do it. Sure, it’s okay to correct your man from time to time, but if you obsess over proving your point and putting him down, you’re only going to sabotage the relationship.It’s one thing to express yourself and show off how amazingly smart you are, it’s another to belittle him or make him feel stupid. At the end of the day the goal is to be happy together, so know when to prove yourself and when to let it slide.#10. Don’t Obsess Over Your LooksA major misconception is that your man expects you to look like an airbrushed magazine model. He doesn’t.In fact, most men find it unattractive when their lady spends too much time obsessing about her looks and caking on the makeup.You also shouldn’t complain to him about how you wish you were ten pounds lighter or two inches taller, and don’t compare yourself to other women.RELATED:

How To Attract A Man And Make Him Want You

It can be tough at times, but do your best to master your insecurities and just be you, the beautiful soul he fell for. If there are parts of your body that you would like to improve, then do it for yourself, and properly.Fad diets, obsessive workouts, and fishing for compliments is no way to get his attention. Simply be confident in who you are and how you look — it’s one of the most attractive traits you can possess.#11. Be ReliableLet your man know that he can count on you. A thought that every man has when considering committing to a woman is “Can I depend on her?”Every successful relationship requires an unspoken promise to be there for one another. If you have a habit of making promises you can’t keep or saying you’ll do things that you won’t, he is going to have a hard time trusting you to be there when he needs you. Be a woman of your word.

#12. Be SupportiveWhether your man wants to continue his education, pursue a new career, or start an 80s hair metal band, support him in his ventures. One of the quickest ways to lose your guy is by putting down his dreams, so even if they’re not realistic, let him know you’ve got his back.The most powerful bond you can make with your man is based on support for one another’s wants and needs. If his plans interfere with your long-term goals, then sit down and discuss the direction you’re headed in as a couple. Regardless of what he’s striving for, always be his biggest fan.#13. Be AppreciativeYou’d be amazed how much a simple “thank you” means to your man. As couples get comfortable with one another and the small gestures that used to be a big deal become the norm, it’s common for couples to forget to show their appreciation.Make a conscious effort to thank your man for making dinner, doing the dishes, or holding the door open. He’ll be grateful for your appreciation and happy that you still recognize his efforts. They may not always show it, but men love to be appreciated.#14. Trust Him (Important!)If you feel like you’re constantly playing detective or checking in on your man every few hours, then chances are you have some trust issues. In order to be in a happy, committed relationship it’s crucial that your man knows you trust him. And remember: actions speak louder than words.No guy wants to tie himself down to someone who is going to harass them about his whereabouts or the company he keeps. Instead, know that he wants to be with you, and move on happily together.If your man gives you reason to not trust him, then confront him about it and, if need be, cut him loose; there’s no point in wasting your time on a relationship that lacks trust. But unless he proves otherwise, your man should be a person you love and trust, and he should know it.#15. Love UnconditionallyThrough thick and thin, good times and bad, you must love your man if you want him to commit to you. Just think, why would anyone want to share their life with someone who loves them based on a set of limitations?Every relationship experiences its highs and lows, but it’s during the low phases that your love shines brightest. Even if your man spills red wine on the carpet, bleaches your favourite shirt, or has one too many shots at the bar, your love should continue to radiate, unconditionally.
